Hi everyone,

Does anyone know what the mechanism is that enables one NetView server to
distribute security profile data to another NetView server (other than the
obvious - setting it as a Distribution Server)?

I followed the steps in the documentation, and IT WORKED!  However, the
adminstrator of the OTHER NetView server is concerned (putting it mildly
:-) that I was able to do this with seemingly no authorization.

So (1) how did it get the files from my system to his? And (2), is there a
way to block this kind of access? (1 will likely also answer 2).

Thanks!
